Reviewer Comments:
We have stayed at a variety of vacation homes in Sunriver and I would characterize this one as decent. Location is okay - close to Fort Rock Park but the walk/bike to get there is straight uphill. Also, the property is not near any of the primary biking/walking trails so navigation takes a little more work. The home is functional and the layout is nice but it feels a little rundown relative to other properties. Bunk beds in the loft are nice but one of the top bunks is unusable for smaller children because there are no guardrails. Now for the yellow jacket experience. We were attacked by yellow jackets that had (unbeknownst to us) made a nest near our house resulting in multiple stings. This could obviously happen anywhere but I believe the owner is a least partially at fault due to multiple piles of wood around the outside of the house creating very good nesting habitat for bees, spiders, snakes, rodents, etc. I will say that Sunset Lodging was very responsive to this issue and sent out multiple maintenance personnel until the problem was resolved. All in all, there are better options in Sunriver.
